What is the effect of different printing modes on the effect of PET thermal matte silver paper?

Different printing modes have a significant impact on the effect of PET thermal matte silver paper. The main printing modes include thermal printing and thermal transfer printing, which have differences in printing principle, printing effect, durability and so on.

First, thermal printing mode

1. Printing principle:

Thermal printing is to heat the thermal paper by a semiconductor heating element on the print head, so that the coating on the thermal paper causes a chemical reaction, thereby displaying the desired pattern or text.

2. Print effect:

Thermal printing on PET thermal matte silver paper can usually produce faster printing speed, low noise, and the initial printing effect is clear.

However, the durability of thermal printing is relatively poor, and the content printed out is susceptible to environmental factors, such as light, temperature, humidity, etc., causing the color to fade or become lighter.

3. Application scenario:

Thermal printing is suitable for scenarios where the durability of the printing effect is not high and fast printing is required, such as supermarket receipts, express bills, etc.

Second, heat transfer printing mode

1. Printing principle:

Thermal transfer printing is done by heating the ribbon so that materials such as toner or resin on the ribbon are melted and transferred to PET thermal matte silver paper to form the desired pattern or text.

2. Print effect:

Thermal transfer printing on PET thermal matte silver paper can produce a clear, sharp printing effect, and good durability. The printed content can resist the erosion of environmental factors and maintain color stability for a long time.

Especially when printing with all-resin carbon tape, it can further improve the clarity and durability of the printing effect. The resin carbon strip has the characteristics of high strength, chemical resistance, water resistance, high temperature resistance, etc., and the stain resistance, heat resistance, tear resistance and other properties of PET thermal matte silver paper are matched to jointly improve the overall quality of the label.

3. Application scenario:

Thermal transfer printing is applicable to scenarios that require high durability of printing effects and require long-term storage of label information, such as electronic product labels, logistics and warehousing labels, and medical equipment labels.

Third, summary

Different printing modes have a significant impact on the effect of PET thermal matte silver paper. Thermal printing, although fast, low noise, but poor durability; The thermal transfer printing can produce a clear, sharp printing effect, and better durability. When selecting a print mode, you need to consider the printing mode based on specific application scenarios and requirements. For example, in the case of fast printing and low durability requirements, the thermal printing mode can be selected; In the scenario where label information needs to be stored for a long time and the printing effect is required, the thermal transfer printing mode should be selected.
